GoFastCamper GFC Mods, Tips, and Tricks thread.

I went back and forth many times whether to keep my existing shell and put a GFC RTT on it, but ultimately went with the full camper. No regrets!

 

Made a quick and easy screen for the back.

Just window screen, duct tape and sticky Velcro. Less than $20 in materials and 15 minutes in time.

Just folded the duct tape over the edges to reinforce the edge of the screen and so the Velcro had something to stick to. Other side of the Velcro is stuck to the inside of the GFC frame. I left the screen square and didn’t bother angling it to fit the opening of the GFC.

Doesn’t go all the way to the bottom since the bed platform covers that part.

 

Anyone have any good pictures of how they mounted they’re traction boards to the beef bars? I purchased a mount from Sherpa, which I like, but just looking at what others done.

 

Do this

 

Thats super sick. Did you make that?

 

I used the same mounts on my beef racks

 

Those look like Awning Brackets. Almost identical to my OVS Awning mounts with long bolts for the traction boards.

No i didnt. I forgot who it was, but on the gfc forums or fb group. Ill try to find out who it was

 

Got my gfc installed today, super stoked!

 

Looks good

 

That looks super rad on the single cab.

 

Agreed. I am gonna do the same to the RCSB Tundra

 

What about reg cab long bed tundra, now that they have 8ft campers?

 

That would be sweet as well. Get a big ol’ skid across the bottom and your set. I will say the shorter wheel base is nice up here in the NC switchbacks.

 

Whoa! Another east coast GFC'er.

I havent been using mine much lately. Haven't camped since april been doing alot of exploring on 2 wheels

 

"Tidy"
That looks really good. Hope you enjoy it.
Remember - pictures, post lots of adventure pictures!

 

I'm down here in Texas with our hot summer nights camping sucks anyone run A/C in their GFC. I want to run it just at night for sleeping with my 1 and 6 yearold. I saw some guys with regular campers build a frame out of wood for the tailgate and stick a window unit it seems to work. Yes camping is camping blah blah blah.

Friend of mine was selling his. I can ask him if he's still got it, if you're interested

 

I am down to meet up and explore on 2 wheels…that’s actually my biggest passion. Just let me know when ya wanna meet up. I am down for some dual sport, hard enduro, or we can rock the pkwy.
